Victoria Tauli-Corpuz began advocating for Indigenous rights as a teenager and still hasn't let up, first working to improve the health and welfare of her Kankanaey Igorot community in the Philippines and then for Indigenous communities around the world. We met during an extended collaboration when she was United Nations special rapporteur on the rights of indigenous peoples and pressing for increased respect and recognition of Indigenous property rights. At times, her life's work has brought legal troubles and threats of violence from the political powers threatened by her challenges to the status quo.
For more information on her work, please see her New York Times profile or her op-ed in the Financial Times.
